numpages |
Requested number of buffer pages to allocate — 39 buffer pages are required for TLS to work; allocating more than 39 pages is not necessary. |
Details
The actual buffer allocation happens when the sys.buffalloc method is called.
On the TPP2(G2), TPP3(G2), EM2000, and EM2001, TLS requires a minimum of 39 buffer pages. On these platforms, buffer allocation must take place prior to calling sock.tlsinit.
The WM2000 and WS1102 allocate the necessary TLS buffer space at boot, so no "manual" allocation in code is required and this method is not available.
